Thread: Where is my forum?

Started 1 month, 2 weeks ago by miasmo
I enabled the forum module. I created a container called "forums" with parent set to "root" (the only choice available from the pull-down menu.) I created a forum with parent set to "forums." Where is the forum? It doesn't show up anywhere? Please help me out here. What have I done wrong?

It wouldn't allow no name at all for the container. I renamed it. Still not showing up in forum page. I don't have an administer -> forums link. Only administer -> content management -> forums. Perhaps this is what you ...

I messed around for a couple weeks creating my subtheme and tweaking the configuration, etc. before I enabled the forum module. When I did, there was a new page ("Forum") listed in administer -> content management -> content. It is basically a blank page with a node number, a title, and a url path setting ("forum") but nothing in the body. I have a previous drupal 6.13 installation which had ...

please link to a screen captire of your administer -> forums screen and link it here. yes administer -> forums = administer -> content -> forums

I don't know what went wrong, but I disabled the forums module, deleted the forum page and then re-enabled the forums module, and now it's working. ???

You created a page with an alias of "forum" so that overrode your going to the page created by the forum module.
